BTRIPP's review of Jeanne De Salzmann's "The Reality of Being: The Fourth Way of Gurdjieff" (929 words) This is a handbook for those involved in the Work. It is a book I would have liked to have had many years ago. Before publication it was described as being from Jeanne de Salzmann's notes. Well, it reads like a book rather than a notebook. I find it has to be read in short bursts otherwise it is just too concentrated. I don't want to finish it! sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Based on notebooks kept by G.I. Gurdjieff's closest follower, this book offers new insight on his spiritual teachings-a way of gnosis or "knowledge of being" passed on from remote antiquity. It is a complete and uniquely authoritative guide to the great teacher's ideas and to his methods for liberating ourselves from the state of "waking sleep" in which most of us live our lives.Gurdjieff respected traditional religious practices, which he regarded as falling into three general categories or "ways"- the Way of the Fakir, related to mastery of the physical body; the Way of the Monk, based on faith and feeling; and the Way of the Yogi, which focuses on development of the mind. He presented his teaching as a Fourth Way that integrated these three aspects into a single path of self-knowledge. Progress in the Fourth Way comes through conscious effort toward a quality of thinking and feeling that brings a new capacity to see clearly and to love.
